After the video went viral of tourists flouting Covid protocol at Mussoorie’s Kempty Falls, Uttarakhand government has imposed fresh sets of guidelines. As per the new orders only 50 tourists will be allowed at Kempty Falls at a time and they can stay not more than half an hour.

The district administration took this step after photos and videos of hundreds of tourists bathing together in the waterfall went viral on social media.

“Now only 50 tourists are allowed at Kempty Falls (waterfall) in Mussoorie; can’t stay at the spot beyond half an hour,” said Iva Ashish Srivastava, Tehri Garhwal District Magistrate.

The DM further said that the tourists will have to get out of the waterfall as soon as the hooter rings.
